Break apri.
4
00:00:50.359 --> 00:00:54.840
Today is National Apricot Day. It seems a little early
5
00:00:54.920 --> 00:00:56.880
in the air, but I guess you can eat apricots,
6
00:00:56.880 --> 00:01:00.679
fresh or dried apricots. They're related to beat His cherries,
7
00:01:00.719 --> 00:01:04.040
that whole stuff. Now China they're responsible for giving us apricots.
8
00:01:04.280 --> 00:01:06.719

It is considered the apricot capital of the world. Yeah,
12
00:01:15.200 --> 00:01:18.519
they grow the most apricots anywhere. Apricots. They are very
13
00:01:18.599 --> 00:01:21.439
very healthy for you. Now, somehow dried apricots are actually
14
00:01:21.439 --> 00:01:22.400
healthier than the fresh ones.
15
00:01:22.439 --> 00:01:23.280
Don't know how that works.
16
00:01:23.480 --> 00:01:26.159
They're high in fiber, vitamin A, they've got all kinds
17
00:01:26.200 --> 00:01:28.719

Up your skin if you need it.

00:01:30.000 --> 00:01:32.040
It's I guess you can consume some wet apricots, so
20
00:01:32.079 --> 00:01:36.359
that's called apricot liquor. Probably have some little anti inflammatory benefits.
21
00:01:36.359 --> 00:01:38.719
Still in there now, however you consume them days, just
22
00:01:38.799 --> 00:01:40.200

After Tomorrow debut. It was the world's first X rated movie.
42
00:02:58.759 --> 00:03:01.879
All Right, what Happened on janeynywhere the ninth, thirteen forty nine,
43
00:03:02.000 --> 00:03:05.800
the Black Death massacre took place over in Basil, Switzerland. Now,
44
00:03:05.800 --> 00:03:08.520
the Black plague, it was just raging all across Europe,
45
00:03:08.680 --> 00:03:10.520
and the people in Basil, they noticed that the Jewish
46
00:03:10.560 --> 00:03:12.759
people they had a lot lower rate of catching it.
47
00:03:13.080 --> 00:03:14.960
And he also knows the Jewish people never drank from
48
00:03:15.000 --> 00:03:17.639
the city well, so they put two and two together.
49
00:03:18.039 --> 00:03:18.280
Yep.
50
00:03:18.319 --> 00:03:20.319
The Jews were poisoned in the city well and getting
51
00:03:20.319 --> 00:03:23.680
everybody sick. So they burned to death over seven hundred Jews.
52
00:03:23.800 --> 00:03:26.639
They took one hundred and forty children Jewish children, converted
53
00:03:26.680 --> 00:03:29.759
them to Catholicism, yep, and banned any more Jews from
54
00:03:29.759 --> 00:03:33.159
actually moving into Basil. But now we know that the
55
00:03:33.240 --> 00:03:37.039
lower infection rate for the Jewish people was because of hygiene. Now,
56
00:03:37.039 --> 00:03:39.599
the cleanliness and standards of the Jewish religion. Yeah, it
57
00:03:39.639 --> 00:03:42.280
kept them from actually contacting the plague as often as
58
00:03:42.319 --> 00:03:45.560
non Jews. Plus they were Kosher, and since animals drank
59
00:03:45.599 --> 00:03:49.479
from that, well, they wouldn't. Fourteen ninety three, Christopher Columbus
60
00:03:49.520 --> 00:03:51.319
and his crew they saw mermaids.
61
00:03:51.439 --> 00:03:51.639
Yeah.
62
00:03:51.680 --> 00:03:53.960
Columbus even wrote about it in his journal. He said
63
00:03:53.960 --> 00:03:56.039
the mermaids, and him and his men saw they were
64
00:03:56.039 --> 00:03:58.199
not even half as beautiful as the mermaids they saw
65
00:03:58.280 --> 00:04:01.120
him paintings. In fact, they were actually ugly. Oh, that's
66
00:04:01.159 --> 00:04:27.120
because they saw manatees. Happy birthday, Connecticut today. In seventeen

Yeah.
85
00:05:25.120 --> 00:05:27.959
Still, Greenland's called the temperature ever recorded. We might want
86
00:05:27.959 --> 00:05:28.720
to remember that if.
87
00:05:28.600 --> 00:05:29.079
We buy it.
88
00:05:29.839 --> 00:05:32.639
Nineteen ninety eight, people in Copenhagen, Denmark could breathe a
89
00:05:32.759 --> 00:05:35.839
sigh of relief the decapitated head of their little Mermaid
90

He called it the iPhone. Said it was going to

fought in World War Two with the Navy over in
100
00:06:12.319 --> 00:06:14.959
the Pacific Gay Mom and went right into politics. He
101
00:06:15.000 --> 00:06:17.920
was vice president under Eisenhower for two terms. Became the
102
00:06:18.319 --> 00:06:20.279

nineteen sixty nine to nineteen seventy five. He is the
104
00:06:23.560 --> 00:06:26.759
only president to resign the office. Now his legacy is
105
00:06:26.759 --> 00:06:30.480
actually changing. Yeah, not the Watergate park, but historians are
106
00:06:30.480 --> 00:06:33.120
really looking back at Nixon and as a president, Nixon
107
00:06:33.160 --> 00:06:35.959
gets really high grades for what he did Watergates, he
108
00:06:35.959 --> 00:06:38.839
gets failing grades for what he did. But there Gaxtali
109
00:06:38.879 --> 00:06:42.000
coming too kind of a conclusion that Watergate it's really
110
00:06:42.000 --> 00:06:44.319
not that bad when you compare it to what president's
111
00:06:44.319 --> 00:06:47.160
before him and after him. It is done now Nixon,
112
00:06:47.279 --> 00:06:49.600
